Car bumpers are made of polyester-based and polypropylene-based plastics. A bumper consists of an outer panel, cushioning material, and a crossbeam. The outer panel and cushioning material are made of plastic, while the crossbeam is formed by stamping cold-rolled thin sheets into a U-shaped channel. The outer panel and cushioning material are attached to the crossbeam, which is then connected to the frame longitudinal beams with screws. Car bumpers are located at the front and rear of the vehicle and serve the following purposes: 1. To absorb and mitigate external impact forces during collisions, providing cushioning to protect both the vehicle and its occupants; 2. To harmonize with the vehicle's overall design, offering aesthetic appeal.

How to Handle Sudden Accidents While Driving?

Methods to handle sudden accidents while driving: 1. Sudden steering wheel failure: Immediately shift to a lower gear to reduce speed, and turn off the engine throttle while gently pulling the hand brake or intermittently pressing the brake pedal (pump braking) to bring the car to a stop as quickly as possible. 2. Sudden brake failure: Try every means to stop the car as soon as possible, quickly shift from a high gear to a low gear, use the engine's idle drag to reduce speed, and at the same time, firmly hold the steering wheel to steer the car away from dangerous objects and pull over to stop the engine. 3. Sudden tire blowout: Use both hands to control the car's direction, quickly reduce the throttle to ensure the car slowly moves to the roadside, decelerate smoothly, and use the engine's drag resistance to bring the car to a stop on its own.

How Long Can a Car Be Parked Before It Needs to Be Started?

It is recommended to start the car if it has been parked for half a month. Below is some relevant information about starting the car: Function of the Starting System: The starting system converts the electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy through the starter motor to initiate the engine's operation. The purpose of the starting system is to transition the stationary engine into an operational state. This requires an external force to rotate the engine's crankshaft, enabling the pistons to begin moving up and down, allowing the intake of a combustible air-fuel mixture into the cylinders, and subsequently entering the subsequent working cycles. Effects of Long-Term Non-Use on the Car: When a car remains unused for an extended period, most of the lubricating oil that should coat the moving parts will flow back into the oil pan due to gravity. This reduces lubrication at various moving components. Without the protective oil film, metal parts are prone to react with oxygen, forming an oxide layer, which increases friction and makes starting the engine difficult.
